Kaizer Chiefs' humiliating 4-0 defeat to Mamelodi Sundowns at the weekend has left Richards Bay coach Pitso Dladla concerned ahead of their match on Saturday at Moses Mabhida Stadium.
Dladla feels the Amakhosi would be desperate to avoid another defeat and that they will come out with all their guns blazing against the rookies.
“I think playing Chiefs at any point is a team that we must respect. They are one of the biggest teams in the country and in Africa,” Dladla told Sowetan yesterday. “But we are also so fortunate that they brought the game to Durban and maybe this can work on our side, but in terms of being worried that they lost the game, we are not even considering that.
League newcomers Richards Bay are sitting at the summit of the log with seven points following two wins and a draw.“It is very important to remain grounded and then put in the hard work. In football that’s how it should be because tables can turn any time once you start becoming big-headed,” he said.
